Friendship Stars

Whoever created Friendship Stars is no friend of mine!  These are tough to make.  I've made three blocks so far for my piecing class Sampler; one out of three actually has points that match.  I'm going to have a "cuppa" tea and read about Tudor England instead.  I'm bushed, but happy to have gotten Sara's quilt top done.  What a lovely day Sunday was, quilting from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm.  Now, if I can only be more patient in making the Friendship Stars, I will be alright.  
 
And thanks to my best skating buddy who sent me a wonderful e-mail that lifted my spirits about my progress and feelings about skating.  She will never know the depths of my appreciation.  Her post was just what the doctor ordered to get me out of my "Poor Me" attitude.  

I am going to have to push hard today to get the pieces done for class tomorrow.  Don't think I will have completed all my "homework" for the piecing class, but I can finish this quilt top by myself anyway.

  1. Hi, ES! I do love this hobby. I did eventually get my points to match on my Friendship Stars. Now I'm struggling with the points on Flying Geese. What an adventure. Keeps the old brain working, I will say that. Thanks for the kind comments about 'The Grapes of Rhone.' It is my favorite quilt so far. I plan to make another quilt using this pattern because I like the bold, big blocks and highly contemporary style. Hope to see you soon on the ice!
